ICGW2 people, we now need to get a feel for what races/classes we'll be dealing with now that the three betas are pretty much over.

Please don't vote until you're certain the race/class you're selecting is the combo you'll be playing when the game launches in August.

    I'm pretty positive I'm still going Human Necromancer. Here's hoping they give traits another look through before launch.

    curious why it matters what we play? are there plans for some raid-type event based on who picks what?

    I had 4 max leveled (Warrior, Ranger, Dervish, Assassin) toons in guild wars, I'll probably do the same in GW2
  • ThraxThrax 🐌 Austin, TX Icrontian
    Class balance isn't terribly important in GW2, but some people might not want to play what "everyone else" is playing. I am one of those people.

    Variety will also help from a DPS perspective when we do dungeons.

    I haven't followed GW2 as much as most of you. Will there be racial traits? I hope not. Hated that with WoW
  • ThraxThrax 🐌 Austin, TX Icrontian
    Yes, races lend abilities to the classes.
  • SnarkasmSnarkasm Madison, WI Icrontian
    Apparently a billion people are going guardian, so I have to rethink my shiz.

    Norn Warrior for me.
  • fatcatfatcat Mizzou Icrontian
    I so hope people play what they want and not what the guild wants

    heh, not me. I haven't even made a Guardian toon. All Ranger/Thief/Engineer/Elementalist here

    No one is telling you what to play. I believe the point was...

    I get the point, which is why I questioned the survey at all. If we don't care what people play, why ask?

    I understand balance for dungeons. I just hope people don't pick "needed" classes just to join in on dungeons

    AFAIK we're going to be posting the list ASAP as to see what people are running. I thought it would be view-able immediately. I'll see what we can do about this.

    OP updated with running results.

    So I played human necro the first time since that's what my GW character was and enjoyed it but this weekend I rolled an Azura Engineer and absolutely loved that so that's what I think I'll play.

    Right now I prefer Guardian, probably Warrior or Elementalist backup. Race I really couldn't care about, as I'll likely join whatever race is the easiest to group up with at the beginning.

    Dunno. Gameday decision.
  • IlriyasIlriyas The Syrupy Canadian Toronto, Ontario Icrontian
    Not sure if I'm going to go human Elementalist like I did in GW1 or human Thief.
  • fatcatfatcat Mizzou Icrontian

    Had actually just put in my choice before you posted that hehe
  • TushonTushon I'm scared, Coach Alexandria, VA Icrontian
    I put sylvari elementalist, but if I like some other toons as much I'll be doing more
  • fatcatfatcat Mizzou Icrontian
    Whoever picked Sylvari with me, we'll need to team up :)

    (yes I know you can go to any starter zone, but that kinda defeats the "there for the story")
  • GnomeQueenGnomeQueen The Lulz Queen Mountain Dew Mouth Icrontian
    Sadly, I don't think I'm going to play. It comes out the same time the new semester starts, and this is going to be one of those semesters where I really need to buckle down. I have enough games as is to distract me. :/

    Since there was only one other one on the form at the time I filled it out last night, I went with my main choice, Sylvari Guardian. I'll roll deep with FC and Tushon no problem.
  • MAGICMAGIC Doot Doot Furniture City, Michigan Icrontian
    I tried guardian and mes, both were alright. I'll probably play around with some others launch day.

    I'm a dumb, ignore this.
  • CycloniteCyclonite Tampa, Florida Icrontian
    Gameday decision too. Going to do a bit more research as well. I didn't get to play nearly as much as I wanted in the beta.

    Human Thief added to survey.
